Boston Red Sox: Michael Cuddyer

After early visits to the east coast this offseason for Michael Cuddyer, the Twins outfielder still finds himself without a contract. The Philadelphia Phillies made the first strong push for Cuddyer, but have since pulled back.

With the Colorado Rockies apparently leaning towards Carlos Beltran in the outfield and the Twins signing Josh Willingham, Cuddyer could rethink his asking price and find himself more in a range the Red Sox could work with.

Chicago Cubs: Prince Fielder

With Theo Epstein holding the keys to the Chicago Cubs future, it was assumed that there would be some big moves made this offseason.

Despite not making that big move during last week's winter meetings, the team still appears to be a target for Prince Fielder. With fans looking for a big move to be made, it wouldn't be entirely surprising to see him find a home in the Windy City.

Cincinnati Reds: Jair Jurrjens

Jair Jurrjens is getting interest from a number of teams who would love the young righty on their staff but more so than other teams, the Cincinnati Reds appear serious about getting a deal done for Jurrjens.

With uncertainty in the staff in Atlanta, their GM may be reluctant to pull the trigger, but the right package could end up getting a deal done.

Cleveland Indians: Casey Blake

At season's end, the Los Angeles Dodgers declined the 2012 option on Casey Blake, paying him a buyout and making him a free agent.

With a third of the league interested in bringing Blake on as a utility player, it would seem that a deal shouldn't be difficult to complete, with the Indians appearing to be the most likely destination.

Houston Astros: Jason Varitek

With Kelly Shoppach signing a contract with the Boston Red Sox, it's appearing increasingly likely that Jason Varitek's time with the Sox is over.

With the Rays and Astros among teams looking for help at catcher and Rodriguez reportedly interested in playing in Tampa, it wouldn't be surprising to see the Astros put out some feelers for Varitek this winter.

Los Angeles Angels: Luis Ayala

With a number of relief pitchers making their moves in a deep bullpen market, Luis Ayala has been getting more and more attention this fall.

The 33-year-old righty went 2-2 with a 2.09 ERA in 52 appearances with the Yankees, and could potentially end up joining one of the bigger players this offseason, as the Los Angeles Angels have indicated an interest in the reliever to accompany their acquisition of LaTroy Hawkins.

Los Angeles Dodgers: Hiroki Kuroda

It appeared to be a foregone conclusion that Hiroki Kuroda would re-sign with the Los Angeles Dodgers this offseason, since he had previously indicated that he had no other destinations in mind and could possibly head back to Japan.

At this point it seems fairly unlikely, but with Kuroda still available, it's possible that with his desire to stay out west a deal could get done.

Miami Marlins: Hanley Ramirez

With the bulk of the attention surrounding the new additions to the Miami Marlins roster, there's also a bit of an in-house issue as the talk of Hanley Ramirez's potential departure is gaining steam in the media.

It remains to be seen whether or not a deal is imminent, but it looks like if he was to realistically hit the trading block, there would be no shortage of teams making the call to the Marlins.

Milwaukee Brewers: Prince Fielder

As the 2011 season wound down, it appeared to be a foregone conclusion that Prince Fielder was playing his final games in Milwaukee. After the season, ownership wasn't as quick to call it quits.

Since then, it seems to have gone back and forth a time or two, with Fielder possibly leaning towards teams like the Rangers or Mariners.

But as time passes and teams like the Blue Jays voice an unwillingness to extend Fielder the contract he desires it appears there could still be a window of opportunity to keep Fielder in a Brewers uniform.

Minnesota Twins: Edwin Jackson

With Josh Willingham headed to Minnesota, the Twins will now look to address their starting rotation that struggled mightily in 2011.

The Twins appear to be turning their attention to Edwin Jackson, who may very well be out of their price range, but is one of the best starting pitchers available this offseason and would make an immediate impact in the rotation.

New York Yankees: Matt Thornton

As will continue to be a trend this offseason, Chicago White Sox players are finding themselves mentioned in trade talks with any number of teams while the team looks to rebuild to contend again in the AL Central.

Under contract through 2013, Matt Thornton's name hasn't been thrown out there much, but with the White Sox open to dumping his salary a team like the Yankees—who have been mentioned as a potential suitor for Thornton—could be in the mix.

San Diego Padres: Carlos Quentin

Carlos Quentin's name has at times surfaced with an exact destination in mind, as the San Diego Padres appear to at least be considering filling their outfield void with Quentin.

Quentin had a breakout season in 2008 when he hit 36 home runs in 130 games and finished fifth in MVP voting. His average may have declined since then, but he's still averaged 24 home runs and 73 RBI in his past three seasons.

Given the rebuilding mode the White Sox are in, there doesn't appear to be a player that's off limits, so Quentin could very well end up moving.

Seattle Mariners: Prince Fielder

It's a rumor that won't go away, and while it would seem that Prince Fielder's more likely destinations would be somewhere like Texas or Chicago, Seattle continues to be a team mentioned on a short list for Fielder's services.

Whether or not they're able to get a deal done remains to be seen, but with the winter meetings in the past and other moves beginning to fall into place, it's looking more and more like deals will be getting done before the calendar turns over to 2012.

Texas Rangers: Darren Oliver

With C.J. Wilson already departed from the Lone Star State, the Rangers will be looking to free agency to improve their rotation.

In the bullpen, it appears increasingly likely that we'll see 41-year-old Darren Oliver return for another season. He was effective in 2011, appearing in 61 games while putting up a 2.29 ERA and 5-5 record.
